People are turning to all sorts of creams and serums in order to achieve perfect skin, but fail to realize what we put into our body plays a significant role in the beauty result we desire. There are many things that we do every day that affect our beauty–skincare routines, sleeping routines, working out and of course our diet choices.
All of these lifestyle choices affect the body inside and out, but alcohol can have a severe impact on the way you look and feel-especially when overindulged. Here are a few negative effects of drinking too much alcohol:
Wrinkle Bound. Those who are chronic drinkers look older because their bodies are dehydrated. When consuming alcohol, your body becomes dehydrated which then causes the collagen in your skin to not regenerate as well. This is when lines and wrinkles form in the skin-not only faster but deeper, too.
A Consumer Health Digest article informs readers that 75 percent of the U.S. population suffers from dehydration, which is linked to dry skin, wrinkles, and other skin issues.
Swollen Eyes. Alcohol can cause noticeable swelling around your eyes-this condition is commonly called periorbital edema. High alcohol consumption will cause dehydration, which can lead to fluid retention, per a Healthline article.
